The Westin Peachtree Plaza

Atlanta, Georgia

Virgin rating

The hotel

A statement hotel, this glass column stretches far above neighbouring high rises to give unrivalled views over Atlanta through its floor-to-ceiling windows. To top it all off, literally, it’s capped with The Sun Dial, a three-tiered venue featuring a revolving restaurant, rotating cocktail lounge, and observatory floor with 360-degree views, all reached by an external glass elevator that scales the glazed cylinder in just 85 seconds. Far below, on the 11th floor, the indoor pool’s just as spectacular, with its curved glass roof folding away to let in the sun on hot Atlanta days. To celebrate its 40th anniversary in 2016, the Westin Peachtree Plaza was treated to a $70 million renovation, adding extras like BikeWESTIN cycles, and turning this statuesque pillar into one of downtown Atlanta’s most up-to-date pads.

This hotel was built in the 1970’s and the upkeep is very good. Service in all areas is very friendly. The food on the breakfast buffet was quite good with a good selection of food. We accidentally left the Do Not Disturb sign on and asked for late afternoon towel service. Instead they cleaned the whole room. The beds were perfect. I would stay… Read more

Hotel really needs to be refurbished. Lots of torn carpeting, ripped furniture, dirty linens. I sent pictures to Marriott and to their leadership. For the money there are much better options in downtown Atlanta. Certainly expected more from a Westin. The restaurant had amazing views, food was good, and service was great.

Rooms are built around elevator so felt like I was trying to sleep in a railway station. Asked to move rooms and told this one was specifically away from the elevators. Perhaps staff should try spending some time in the rooms themselves... Also would really appreciate a vegan meal other than burgers. Read less

Great location in downtown. Close to many shops, restaurants! Check in was great and fast. However had to pay for early check in. Staff was more interested on charging me for early check-in, I was never told where my room was located or the elevator to use. Room was nice and clean. Great downtown views. Upon checking out, was asked about my experiance and mentioned my check in experience. They apologized and the gentlemen asked if anything they could do. I said no but I just needed a copy of my folio. The man confirmed my email and said its on its way. I never got the folio email. I needed the folio for my expenses for work. Great location but the service was not great. Read less
